The University of Tulsa is an NCAA Division I member for all sports and a member of the American Athletic Conference. TU moved into The American on July 1, 2014 after dominating Conference USA with more than double the number of league championships than any other conference school in nine years as a C-USA member.

Since the opening of the Donald W. Reynolds Center in 1998, Tulsa’s athletic facilities have undergone a major facelift. New facilities include the Michael D. Case Tennis Center, the Collins Family Softball Complex, the Hurricane Soccer and Track Stadium, the J. Bird Sr. Shell Nest, the Jack Zink Indoor Rowing Center, the Case Athletic Complex and major renovation to H.A. Chapman Stadium.

The Tulsa men's soccer team concluded the 2011 campaign with a 2-1 loss to 17th-ranked UAB on Friday night at the Hurricane Soccer and Track Stadium. TU posted a 5-12 record on the season and was 1-7 in Conference USA, while UAB is now 12-3-3 overall and 6-1-1 in the league.

The first 56 minutes ticked off the clock scoreless, but Kofi Gyawu headed in a ball that was kicked into the box by Moses Adeniran to put the Blazers on the board. Just a couple minutes later Corey Albertson dribbled across the top of the box and then drilled in a goal from the left side to tie the game.

With under two minutes remaining in regulation, Babayele Sodade found the back of the net as he punched in a corner kick taken by Chase Wickham for the game-winner.

Tony Rocha led the Hurricane attack with six shots, while Omar Mata added three attempts, and Albertson and Quinn Starker each had two shots. Mason Gist played the first 25:08 in goal and had two saves, while Cody Mumma logged the final 64:52 between the posts.

Tulsa had an 18-10 lead in shots, but UAB had a 4-3 lead in shots on goal, and both teams had seven corner kicks.
